Security Service Federal Credit Union has announced plans to build a new branch on the city's Southeast Side and another one in Colorado.

John Worthington, spokesman for the credit union, says the additional branches are proof of the credit union's continued growth in assets and in membership.

"We've got members all around the place, and we want to be able to provide services for them," Worthington says. "We've been successful because of the support from members in the community, and we want to reinvest in the community by putting in new facilities and supporting community service projects."

The locations chosen for the new branches -- including the San Antonio branch at Rigsby Road and Loop 410 -- are intended to serve Security Service's members where they live and work, he says. The new full-service branch in the Alamo City will be located on a 1.27 acre lot adjacent to the Wal-Mart Supercenter at Rigsby Road and Loop 410. This will mark the credit union's third location in the south part of the city.

The 5,000-square-foot branch will have six drive-thru lanes and two drive-up ATMs. In addition, it will feature five teller stations, a night deposit box, and offer mortgage and investment services.

Project Control will oversee construction management and Lyda Swinerton Builders Inc. will be the general contractor. The branch is expected to open before the end of the year.

The credit union also plans to open its ninth branch location Colorado. That branch will be approximately 5,000 square feet and will have five drive-thru lanes and two drive-up ATMs.

It will be located in Colorado Springs in a shopping center development called Barnes Marketplace. Security Service plans to open that branch in the second quarter of this year.
